Thanks again Dr. Diana. I can’t get started on the Parasym Plus, as I can’t afford it until I start working again or come across some other source of funding. I wasn’t aware what our currency had done in relation to the $US over the last year until I went to pay for it! One bottle plus postage is now over half my weekly welfare payment.

The Pancreatic enzymes are within my reach and I’m wondering what’s in them? I have multiple intolerances and have read that certain strains of probiotics worsen histamine intolerance. I’ve tried to find info on the VNS site but can’t find a list of ingredients. I just want to make sure before I invest.

I also wanted to ask whether SAMe can help with Vagus Nerve function and/or low acetylcholine levels. I’ve just found a new doctor who agrees that my digstive issues and chronic fatigue are linked to autonomic nerve dysfuction and she has suggested I take SAMe. I’ve been titrating the dose up for the last 3 weeks and just took 400mg this morning for the first time. It has stopped my headaches and my body hurts a lot less too. I’m still exhausted however, and my digestion is no better. She suggested Pancreatic enzymes instead of the HCL & Pepsin I’d been taking, so I’m very interested in the VNS ones. Your guidance would be most appreciated. Thank you.
